I know its still early-ish into Patch Day ... and I know people have real lives and jobs and whatnot, but I just wanted to post a quick report on some 2.0.3 Bongos issues:

My keybinds won't ... well ... bind. I love the "MouseOver then click/type/etc" way to bind keys now, but for some reason this newest version doesn't seem to be saving my settings. The UI is acting almost as if the default Blizz keybindings were still being queried first, or not overwritten at all.

anywho, thanks for this awesome addon, as well as your awesome support, T!!

The mapbar module is not saving the show/hide setting for the world map button. I tried enabling it, but if I log out and back in, the button will be disabled again. Also, the bongos minimap button show/hide setting will not save. I can disable it, log out, then log back in and it'll show up again. Looking at bongos options even shows the minimap button as disabled(not check-marked) but it still shows up regardless.

Oh, one other thing. Is there supposed to be a bongos_mapbar.lua file? I noticed there's only a bongos.lua and bongos_actionbar.lua file in the character folder.

I'm another who's having tooltip problems. In my case I use Tooltip Wrangler. Its particularly annoying to me since I'm having tooltips obscure items that I'm trying to use to line my bars up with where I want to place them.

Profiles also aren't working for me. The special bars like bags, keys, and stats all seem to load just fine but the action bars don't.

It also doesn't seem to be saving bar positions properly. I'll get my bars set up like I want them to be, log out, log back in, and many of them will have moved slightly out of position. This seems to be more of a problem when sticky bars aren't enabled.

Finally, what are the chances of getting a non-justified sticky bar option? I like putting my class bar about a third of the way over on the left side of my main action bar bank. Right now this means turning on sticky bars while I set up the main action bar bank, then turning off sticky bars while I position the class bar. It would be helpful if I could just toggle an option for the class bar to be non-justified and then have it snap to the action bars where I want it.

1. Again, as with 7.1.8, when I load a profile I created, Bar 1 (and all bars that were either attached to it, or on pages of it or bars attached to it) is moved to the bottom of the screen. It's state is reset to a horizontal row, with spacing of 2, and 100% scale. All bars that were attached to it or pages of it, become themselves pages of it.

To boot, when I try to recreate my original layout, I can no longer dock any bars as pages.

2. There's definitely an issue with keybinding. I can bind some keys properly, but others simply activate commands when I am in binding mode and hover over the button and press the key. I've checked, and I do not have any other functions bound to the keys I'm trying to bind.

3. Tooltips do not work properly at all. I use LitheTooltipDoctor to move my tooltip, yet with Bongos, the tooltips always appear next to the button I'm pointing to.

There seems to be an issue with how WoW 2.0.3 handles tooltips, as I've run into tooltip problems with many of my addons.

Anyone else unable to load profiles? My profiles are listed, but when I try to load them, none work. Are we SOL now that this new version is released? I didn't see anything about the new version nuking our profiles.

Originally posted by Toran Anyone else unable to load profiles? My profiles are listed, but when I try to load them, none work. Are we SOL now that this new version is released? I didn't see anything about the new version nuking our profiles.

Thanks for the help.

Profiles from before the 7.1.x versions should not work, profiles saved after should, as I've been able to load them.

I'm also unable to load profiles. It seems like the only part of a profile that's actually saving itself is the "lock button position" setting

I was also experiencing a weird bug with docked action bars. They were not retaining the settings for scale and size of their parent but were inheriting their own values. I had to undock them and make them all the same in order to get them to work properly.

Edit: Just deleted all my saved variables pertaining to Bongos as well as manually cleaned out the bindings-cache.wtf file and now keybindings don't work at all. Very sad panda indeed, really wanted to play a bit today. Will see if I can revert to an older version of Bongos and redo all my layouts.

OK, found what seems to be causing the problem. After a reloadui my keybindings done through Bongos are recognized, but as soon as I enter the "Bindings" tab the keys all become "frozen" and don't respond to bindings. A reloadui fixes it again so it's gotta be something to do with an event associated with the Bindings pane.

I can bind everything mostly normally, but when I tried to bind ; (semicolon), it says it bound it but it doesn't actually do it. The label doesn't come on the key, and from there on out bad things start happening (though no errors). Since ; is used in code, I would guess that might be something to do with it?

After a restart it mostly works normally, though sometimes I get certain things reverted to default bindings, except for that ; key. It just refuses to bind.
